WC mascot/logo

**soos** · 10-23-2001 04:18 AM

i hadnt noticed the WC mascot, the friendly dragon ... but its pretty cool and fun :
http://www.escrime2001.com/

the mascot takes different attitudes all over the website of the WC, and i think its a real nice logo instead of the "abstract" ****s u can find in many other events...

the webpage is great too...

i ll go to Nimes for men foil teams (31/10), i hope the organization will be as good as the mascot design... but for sure being in such a city, Nimes, is a great advantage, with finals in arenas ....

i ll report after WC

Not bad - the dragon is cute. Good luck and have fun.

Hmm...looks like they're shilling for FreeBSD. Are they using those for their servers or something?

**darius** · 10-23-2001 08:49 AM

Good thing, too...you wouldn't want their servers to get [h/cr]acked, would you?

Oops. Isn't the FreeBSD logo the daemon guy with the pitchfork? Which OS uses the dragon logo?

It's not an OS. KDE's mascot is a dragon, if that's the one you're thinking about.

I want one!!!

The dragon is really cool - if he was red he could almost be a welsh dragon.

That's right. Well, at least they didn't choose the Gnome footprint for a logo.

Or a partially chewed upon apple.

KDE's mascot is a dragon, if that's the one you're thinking about. Epee is the Louis Vuitton bag of fencing: only the best can get it, and the rest of the masses must content themselves with cheap knockoffs (sabre, foil) To not recognize the power of the French grip is to be in denial 10-23-2001 12:18 PM #7 Haze Senior Member Array Join Date Jul 2001 Location England Posts 509 I want one!!!
